Authentic Rainforest Experience

A lush paradise in the heart of the Arenal Volcano National Park, Nayara has been recognized as one of the world’s best resorts by Travel&Leisure, Condé Nast Traveler and Trip Advisor. Our heartfelt hospitality, impeccable service, luxurious accommodations, fine cuisine, outstanding spa, and amazing eco-adventures make us the premier destination in Costa Rica.

Nayara Springs, our Adults-Only boutique resort, communicates with Nayara through a bridge over the pristine rainforest. This ultra-luxury resort is a place of breathtaking natural beauty, bounded by a creek and underground mineral springs and host to abundant tropical plants and wildlife. All of the thirty-five luxury villas feature a secluded plunge pool fed by hot springs.

More than 15 sloths have recently taken up residence at Nayara Resorts in Costa Rica’s Arenal Volcano National Park, home to the 35-villa Nayara Springs and the 50-bungalow Nayara Resort, Spa & Gardens. As part of its sustainability program, the resort has planted 300 cecropia trees, creating a sloth preserve in the rain- forest canopy.

Guests at Nayara Resorts can now arrive at the hotel in comfort and style using our Piper Meridian Turbo-Prop, an American-manufactured plane with advanced safety features and pressurized cabin that provides for smooth flying. Only 20 min from San Jose or Liberia airports, we will pick you up from La Fortuna El Tanque Airfield, for a 15 minute drive to the hotel’s lobby.

The Nayara Spa is a place of beauty and relaxation where body and mind achieve perfect harmony with nature. Experience the sights, sounds, and scents of the rainforest by choosing a unique treatment or massage in one of our outdoor spa bungalows. Our menu of services offers natural ingredients to relieve stress and tension and to leave your body renewed and balanced.

We offer private and specially curated tours of most of the ecological and fun attractions in the Arenal area.
